Ris Visit Revives Tall: of ‘a Battle Be- the Rival Railroads. 0, CarL., July 12.—President y Jr. of the San Diego Land | and Town Company is.inspecting property | and improvements now going on, includ- | ing the enlargement of the Sweetwater dam and the extension of the National | City and Otay Railroad. He is accom-| panied by Director Charles S. Gleed and Treasurer Lanning. Mr. Cheney, as chair- man of the reorganization committee of | t the Santa Fe Company, is also looking over the railroad property in the West, but will not discuss the probabilities. The fact that the Southern Pacific ha secured control of the Cuyamaca road, which assures its entry into San Dicgo, is taken to indicate a counter-move against the Santa Fe's entrance into San Fran- cisco, and that battle is about to begin between these companies on this coast. It is thought here that the Santa Fe is making an important deal with the Valley railroad. i INSANE FROM RAREFIED AIR. ‘Strange Experience of a San Bernardino Camper in a High Altitude. SAN BERNARDINO, CaL., July 12.— A case of insanity induced by the rarefied air of high mountains, exactly similar to the recent experience of Mrs. Volney Spalding of San Francisco in th e moun- tains of Colorado, occurred in this county this week. Lester Perdew, a barber about 22 years of age, went to Bear Valley in the San Bernardino Mounsains last Wednesday to camp with some friends. The valley is thirty-five miles from this city, and the altitude is over 6000 feet. During the night he became very rest- less, and the next morning was violently insane. He threatened to kill himself and his friends, and yesterday it was determ- ined to bring him to the valley. His hands were bound behind him and he was taken over the trail on burros, friends rid- ing close to him before and behind to pre- vent him throwing himself overa preci- pice. When half way down he was turned over to the stage-driver. He managed to loosen the bands which held him, and the driver and a companion had a desperate struggle to subdue him. When the valley level was reached at Redlands, Perdew had quieted down and seemed to be quite rational. He was turned over to his friends, and to-day his mental equilibrium appears to be restored. SUTTER COUNTY IN LINE. Her Fruit-Growers Favor the Proposition to Establish Union Auction-Rooms. MARYSVILLE, Can., July 12.— The question of maintaining one or more than one auction-room in each of the large Eastern cities was considered at a meeting of the Sutter County fruit-growers, held in Yuba City last evening, Colonel H.

The real fight is centered on New York City, where two large associations have refused to con- sider the proposition of consolidation. Resolutions were passed by the growers last night denouncing those who are doing business with these rival concerns. FALL OF BASTILE. It Will Be Celebrated Two Days’ Festigitiés. SAN JOSE, Caw., July 12.—The celebra- tion of the fall of the Bastile by the French citizens commences to-morrow. An inter- esting programme has been arranged for the two days' celebration.

SAN JOSE, CaL., July 12.—It looks as { though serious trouble will resuit in China- town over the alleged kidnaping of Soon Ho. Yesterday afterncon on Ho, or Mrs. Ham Ket Soon, as she has a right to be called now, was arrested on a charge of grand larceny. This morning she was re- leased on bail in the sum of $5000, but this afternoon members of the opposing faction affidavits that the bounds furnished worthless and asked that she be re- inded to the custody of the Sheriff. Her mination on the charge of grand lar- cenyjwas set for Tuesday. The enemies of Ham Ket Soon allege that Ham Ket is none other than a profes- sional wooer of Chinese maidens, who has been known heretofore as Ling Lee. They ert that he has five wives in Portland, nd as many more in this State, he aving married them all to quash abdue- tion charges as in ase. They also threaten Ham Ket w t for bigamy, as they claim the only separ- ated Ham Ket and his wives were good sums of money. At present the two factions are watching were ms each other closely, and but little encour- ent would cause a crash between respective tongs. It is thought a will surely occur if Ham Ket Soon ttempts to take his bride to Portland, Or.. as he bas already expressed his intention of doing. SPRECKELS BROOD MARES., A Valuable String of Them on the Way to His Aptos Stock Farm. SAN JOSE, CAr., July 12.—J. C.

Santa Clara’s Turn Verein. JOSE, CarL., July 12.—The annual meeting of the Santa Clara Turn Verein was held in Germania Hall, at that place, last evening. The association was organ- ized in 1867 and is in a flourishing condi- tion. It has a membersiip of 52. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, H. Melhorn; vice-president, Charles Geoterick; secre- . W. Werner; treasurer. Julius steward, Frank Emig; librarian, D imig; trustees, George Lauck ntone Fischer and Philip Sassenrath. Passed Counterfeit Coin, SAN JOSE, CaL., July 12.—Charles Du- bronz, who until recently conducted a saloon on West Santa Clara street, was this morning arrested on a charge of pass- ing counterfeit coin. The complaint was brought by Ira Nutter.a tamale-vender, who charges that Dubronz knowingly passed a §1 counterfeit piece on him. It is said that Dubronz passed the same coin the day before on a man named Coffiin, but when the latter threatened arrest he gave a good coin in exchange for the bad one. Justice Gass held Dubronz, with bail at $1000, which was promptly fur- nished. Talesmen Fined. SAN JOSE, CAL., July 12.—Justice Gass this morning fined William Kelley, W. B. McCarley and Thomas J. Stone, who had been regularly sumamoned to sit as jurors in the Lavigne case yesterday, $1 each for not putting in an appearance. Sam Close and William Brownlee were let off with a lecture. The men were brought into court on an order from Justice Gass, and he gave them to understand that an order from the court such as the writ for a venire under which they were summoned must at all hazards be obeyed under penalty of pun- ment for contempt of court. Another Woman Pioneer Gone. SAN JOSE, Can, July 12.—Mrs. Catherine Pinkard, a pioneer resident of this valley, died at her home in Santa Clara about 5 o'clock last evening. Her husband, N. Pinkard, survives her. She was born in County Wexford, Ireland, in 1825, and came to_California thirty-two years ago, locating in Santa Clara, where she has since resided. She wasa member of the Ladies’ Sodality of Saint Claire’s | Church. Sale of Chynoweth Fruit.

Crawford, Muir, Picket’s late and Salway peaches were solJ at $18 per ton; cling peaches $20 per ton, and Bartlett pears $30 r ton. These "ccé are considered good as the sale was orced.

SANTA ANA, Cav., July 12."The Farm- ers’ Institute, composed of tillers of the soil of this and adjoining counties, assem- bled at Santa Ana this afternoon for a two duys’ session, for the purpose of discussing various subjects pertaining to agriculture. The institute is held under the direction of Professor Cook of Pomona College.

ALL ARE AFTER THE QUEEN. | Morrell’s Boat Looking for the Per- petual Challenge Cup— News of the Yachts. A hop will be given at the San Fran- cisco Yacht Club house at Sausalito to- night, and to-morrow the second regatta of the season under the auspices of the club will be held over what is known as the ‘“‘clubhouse course.” The race is for a trophy given by a local firm and is open to all yachts in rezularly organized clubs on the bay. It will be the third run for the trophy, which is now held by the speedy | Queen.

The receivers are to continue the business. 3 The bill states that the company is an Illinois corporation doing business in Kansas Cify, St. Louis, Chicago, South Omaha and” Fort Worth. It hasdone an extensive business in loaning money, se- cured by chattel mortgages on herds of cattle, and by negotiable promissory notes. These were indorsed by the company, sold to the bank and in discounting these loans the commission company in each case in- dorsed the note so aiscounted, thereby guaranteeing the payment to the bank of the loan. The bank loaned the company $40,000, which was secured by chattel mortgages. The bill states thaf the com- pany owes other debts to the amount of $140,000. “The assets, other than the money owed to the company by cattle-raisers and pros- pective commissions of §$100,000, are esti- mated at $100,000, of which only halt is available. Receiver Black said this morning that the business last year had been bad and losses incurred. He asserted that the cred- itors would receive 98 cents on the dollar. A circular has been issuea to customers an- pouncing a continuance of the business by the receivers, - WHEN NIAGARA RAN DRY. In March, 1848, the Torrent Actually Ceased to Flow. Congressman Dan Lockwood of Buffalo says that within his recollection the great waterfall at Niagara was suspended and that many people paesed over its rocky vlaces dry shod. He says that the miracle was wrought in 1848, during the month of To be exact, says the Boston Transeript, it was on the morning of March 29, 1848, and for several hours the THE YACHT QUEEN, WHICH WILL SAIL AGAINST THE ENCI- NALS FOR THE PERPETUAL CHALLENGE CUP, any outside yacht will have for the cup. [ Among the yacnts which will contest will | be the Rover, Commodore Bruce; Elia, | Captain Ames; Pride of the Bay, C(Ptnin | W. D. Hutz; Harpoon, Captain Cook; | Whirlwind, Admiral von Schmidt; Molly | Woggin, Captain Durner, and the Sieipner, | Murthin and McKenzie. The Flash, Cath- | erine, Mist and Cisne have already been | entered in the smaller classes, but the list will probably be greatly swelled before the | start. The yachts will be divided into five classes according to the load water line | measurement. In the first class the length | will be under 50 and over 35 feet; second, | under 35 and over 30; third, under 30 and | over 25; fourth, under 25 and over 20; and fifth, 20 feet and under. The sailing regulations will be those of the San Francisco Yacht Club, the Sea- wanhaka rules governing the classification and computations. The course will be across an imaginary line from the flagon the clubhonse wharf to the Chispa around Shag Rock, around a stakeboat off Angel Island bell; thence back to starting point. The boats in the first three classes will go twice around the course. A pre- | aratory gun will be fired at 1:25. The | Snxt start will be made at 1:30 o’clock and | each successive start at intervals of ten minutes. At 11:30 o'clock in the forenoon there will be a race for launches. The Daring, Matthai’s new boat, has been entered, and it is expected to get in the Satellite (Dr. Buckley) and the Athlete (George Knight). The greatest rivalry exists between the lat- ter craft, but the palm is conceded to that owned by Dr. Buckley for speed in smooth water. Colonel Knight wants a race in | smooth and rough water, and if a course can be agreed upon by the owners to-mor- row morning the race will be run. The formal presentation of the perpetnal challenge cup to Commodore Leonard of the Encinal Yacht Club took Slace at noon on last Wednesday. Immediately Com- modore Gutte of the San Francisco Yacht Club presented a challenge to President Holt of the Encinals and named the Queen as the vessel which would compete against any craft in the Alameda Club for the cup. The conditions are that the chalienge must be accepted and the race sailed inside of sixty days unless the regatta committees of both clubs agree to a postponement for thirty days more. There has been some talk during the week of the unfairness of Commodore Gutte’s challenge, it being stated that the Encinals have no vessel to pit against | the swift Queen. | “I challenged under the rules;’” said the commodore yesterday, “and if the En- cinals haven’t a boat to pit against the Queen let them relinquish the cup, and some other club challenge the San Fran- ciscos, that we may have a race this year an}/how, npcordim.r to the grogrnmme. < The Encinals, however, have no idea of relinquishing the cup without a struggle, and it is said that J:ey will have a%onz before the race comes off which will give ;.lhe Queen all she can do to get away with er. The Encinals' regatta. which was to have been held to-day, has been postponed until the 24th on account of the absence of several of the club’s boats. IN A RECEIVER'S HANDS. The Campbell Commission Company Goes Into Insolvency. KANSAB CITY, Mo, July 12.—George A. Neal and George A. Black were to-day appointed receivers of the Campbell Com- mission Company by Judge Phillips of the United States court. This was done at the instigation of the Metropolitan National Bank. The reason for the appointment was the bill of complaint filed by the bank | day of March 28. wonderful torrent did cease to flow, and the river ran dry. The preceding winter had been a severeone and the ice which had formed in Lake Erie was of phenome- nal thickness, Then came, on March 27, a sudden ex- ceedingly warm spell of weather, which melted the snows, and then a warm fain poured downyin torrents during the entire and a strong east wind drove it far out in the lake during the night. But at sunrise on the 29th the wind came from the west, and, as the sailors say, it was “blowing great guns.” This terrific gale drove the immense mass of ice into the mouth of the Niagara River, where it was gorged and piled up from shore to shore, hermetically sealing the river from damming the waters back into the lake. Thus it happened that Niagara ran dry, its falls became black, barren rocksand its mighty thunders were put to sleep. With- in four or five hours tiny streams of water began to trickle through™ the gorge. The tremendous gfiwer back of those streams accelerated their flowing, and in a short time the ice dam gave way, and there never was such a wild, roaring, mad flood in Niagara before or since, and thas the cataract became itself again. —————— THE SAFEST PLAOCE. Good Reasons Why He Didn’t Leave Jail. Opposite the stage station and hotel was a shanty with a sign of *‘Jale” aver the door, and I strolled over there and asked | of a man sitting at the door and smoking a pipe: *‘Can Itakeit that this is the County Jail?” “You kin, sir,”” he promptly replied. *‘Not much of a jair." et ‘No, sir, but it's a new county, you know.” ‘*Any prisoners inside?” “No, sir; I'm the only- prisoner, and they allow me outside.” ‘“Where’s the Sheriff or jailer?'’ “Gone off huntin’.” ““And left you all alone?” “Allalone.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 12.—The only favorite to come home to-day was Ida Wagoner, who was backed down in the second race of the day from 6 to 1 to 4 to 5.

Shows Up Well in a Tryout With Cham- plon George Dixon. BOSTON, Mass., July 12.—Dave Ross, the Cambridge lad who is going to try and wrest the championship from Jimmy Barry of Chicago at Union Park Hall next Monaay night, wasgiven a tryout by George Dixon, the world’s feather-weight cham- pion, at Faulkner, where Ross is being trained by Dixon. The trial was made in the presence of Tom O’Rourke and several well-known sports. It was four rounds, and Dixon did not let up a bit on Ross, but fought him as if he was contesting to retain his own title. Ross surprised the sporting men by his showing, and they say he neverdid such clever work as he did against Dixon. The colored champion received some stiff blows from Ross and the latter received many from Dixon, but never showed any signs of weakening. The sports were so impressed with. Rosy’ work that they are going to bet on him against Barry. Bageball in the East. LOUISVILLE, K., July 12.—The Lou- isvilles defeated the Bostons in a postponed game played to-day.

L., July 12.—The De- fender was taken out for her third trial spin yesterday afternoon at Bristol, ana although the wind almost died out at the start, when she got down in the lower bay, near Newport, there was a good wind blowing, and while it lasted the yacht gave a splendid account of herself. She carried a club topsail and a jib topsail for the first time, in addition to ber lower safls, and while she heeled well she gave no indicatien of the tendency to tender- ness that was evinced on Saturday. She showed wonderful ability for beat- ing into the wind, and when the wind blew hardest she made a good twelve miles an hour. Her quickness in stays is certainly remarkable in comparison with what American yachtsmen have been ac- customed to in their big sloops. Attachment Against Fitzsimmons. N]'A:\V YORK, N.

Led the Entire Distance Until Fen- nell’s Injury Resulted in Their Defeat. i2. LONDON, Exg., July i2.—Much indig- nation and more amusement was caused in | Henley and in certain circles in London by | the perusal of the dispatches furnished to | certain papers in America purporting to | tell the story of the Cornell-Trinity Hall | race, excerpts from which were cabled here | from New York yesterday morning. As exampies of reckless faking they were | phenomenally brilliant, but as a chronicle | of events which actually occurred the al- | leged report was in most respects without | foundation. ‘ This account said that the Cornells in | passing Fawley Court went all to pieces, and that “Freeborn, No. 4 in the Cornell | boat, dropped his oar and put his hands to his face.” He did not do anything of the | kind, - All that he did was to keep | his hands away from his face and| on his oar and pull for all he was| worth. Then Hager is made to drop bis | oar and fall back in the arms of Spillman, who, the faker says, instantly received | bim. Upon the authority of Hager him- self, with the indorsement of Spillman and thousands of others who witnessed the seenes, Hager did not drop his oar, nor did Spillman receive him *“‘instantiy” or other- wise, consequently Coulson, the cock- swain, could not have shouted, *“What are FKO“ about there?” as he is alleged to have | done. Another statement made is that Free- | born again dropped his oar and put one hand before his eyes, Trinilf‘ in the mean time leading seven or eight lengths at the mile. Itis needless to say that Freeborn did not again drop his oar or put his hand | before his eyes, nor did Trinity lead seven | or eight lengthsat the mile. She positively could not, for at the mile Cornell was dis- puting her right to do so by being some- what in the lead herself. - It is true that Fennell dropped his oar, recovered it and tried to rew; but it is not true that he began “rubbing his forehead,” | nor could any ground be found for the statement _that Hager again dropped his | oar, and Dyer thereupon ‘‘began splash- | ing.” Hager, not having done it in the first instance, could not possibly have dropped his oar a second time. It is also true that Fennell was greatly exhausted at | the finish, but no one saw him ‘‘tumble from his seat in a dead faint.” The race was a hard one to the Isthmian boathouse, and there were nosdefects in the Cornell’s rowing anywhere in the race | up to that time. Freeborn and Hager,who were reported as spending their time ‘‘put- ting their hands before their eyes’” and “rubbing their foreheads,” were really | rowing a game race all the way through. The facts are that the crew started well, and at Fawley Court Cornell led by halfa length. At the mile the boats were nearly even, Cornell having a slight advanta, e,‘ | but at this point Fennell caught a and his oar struck him a violent blow in the ribs, giving him a cramp. He recov- ered his oar quickly and tried to row again, but the pain he suffered was so | sharp that he was unable to pull. Free- born, who sat behind him, had to cease rowing for a moment to assist Fennell, and that is the only foundation for the | fairy tale that he ‘“‘dropped his oar and rubbed his forehead.” | C. A. Louis, No. 7 in the Cornell boat, | says: “The boat came down in elegant | style to the mile, but seven man cannot | row an eight-oared boat to advantage.”’ The foregoing denials of the reckiess | statements made in many American | papers are concurred in by every member | of the Cornell crew and by scores of other | evewitnesses. . ‘When the last census was taken the value | of the railroad proper considered to be equal to the costof con- struction and equipment, as reported by | the railroad companies.
